VG247:Silicon Knights has been ordered by a North Carolina federal judge to pay Epic Games over $9 million, essentially doubling the $4.5 million a jury awarded Epic in May after it was found Silicon Knights deliberately copied code from Unreal Engine 3.
The Supreme Court seems to have given it's final verdict on Epic and Apple's legal battle in the US.
Three years after Fortnite-maker Epic Games sued Apple and Google for allegedly running illegal app store monopolies, Epic has a win. The jury in Epic v. Google has just delivered its verdict — and it found that Google turned its Google Play app store and Google Play Billing service into an illegal monopoly.
oooo shiiiit
well, there ya go
but i think the biggest issue are the judges in these cases.
most of them have no clue about all them things.
ii wonder what the judge will decide Epic actually "won" or what the out come is.
This is terrible news for consumers, while Epic and others get richer we'll now have to pay more for our devices.
Phil and slimey company sitting up and plotting.... expect to hear how Sony is anti-gamer for refusing to have GamePass on their ecosystems they may very well do this to avoid 2027 . I can imagine his email to Satya...."we got them" lol.
The Epic Game Store has two free titles they are giving away this week.
SK is another studio that's on life support
Justice served...Denis Dyack is a pompous @ss.
"Silicon Knights has also been ordered to recall and destroy every unsold copy of Too Human and X-Men: Destiny at its own expense."
hmmm that's interesting, they should hand those copies out for free or find some way of getting them to gamers. I just find the destruction of those games to be a waste, they're playable games if anything and people would still like to play them.
Sorry for the employees that work for SK but i couldnt give a shit about Dyack.
@Neon there is no hope because the company at this point is at 4-5 employees the company exists on paper and thats it and soon it will cease to exist completely.
